Pricey apartment listings by Oprah and others. . .
The alleged Oprah’s-BFF-Gayle-King-apartment-for-sale is actually the alleged Oprah Winfrey apartment. The chat show diva is reportedly the owner of a 2,530 square-foot penthouse apartment (purchased under an LLC named for her dog) at the Place 57 condominium at 207 East 57th Street, now on the market for $7.9 million (The Real Deal).
Noted architect Winka Dubbeldam recently put her apartment at The Greenwich Street Project at 497 Greenwich Street—the building she designed--up for sale. The $2.35 million ask gets you a two-bedroom, 1,661 square-foot apartment with high ceilings and an open layout in the 11-story doorman condo. It also gets you a gym, screening room, wine cellar, pool, Zen garden and guest-suite duplex (NYPost).
Celebrity restaurateur Jeffrey Chodorow (Asia de Cuba, China Grill) has brought his Trump Tower apartment back to the table with a 15 percent price hike. The 3,700-square-foot combo condo at 721 Fifth Avenue made from three apartments was listed last April for $16.4 million, but now it’s $18.8 million. The top chef bought all three units for $5.4 million in 2004, and the combined apartment is now the building’s priciest unit. It overlooks Central Park and boasts a chef’s kitchen, of course (The Real Deal).
